Firefox 5 Released and Available for Download!

Surprise, surprise! My sleepy head couldn’t trust my eyes. Mozilla has released the final version of Firefox 5, well ahead of the scheduled date (June 21st). This comes just days after the Firefox 5 RC release and few months after the Firefox 4 release. Unlike FF4, which had numerous beta and RC releases, FF5 ran on a tight schedule with just around 7 betas.

Mind you, Mozilla hasn’t yet made the Firefox 5 release official. It is available on the FTP servers for now, and the official release might happen on June 21st. But that should not stop you from enjoying the stable release of the latest Firefox build, which is more about the improved performance, rather than redesigns.

Gone are the days when we used to have just around 1 major release a year. Firefox 6 is already in development with alpha version having been released few days back. It should go into the betas about two weeks following Firefox 5’s release.
